Further consolidation is bad. We already have too much. Pay for exclusivity and let the devs/pubs remain independent.


I don't really play any Ubisoft games, so it won't affect me either way.

I don't know how this would work and not be a huge mess. There are over 50 offices, 18,000 people and many of their projects are in in poor shape.

I watched a clip of him today
he said the worst thing we (engineers) can do is struggle to optimise something that should not exist, ergo Ubisoft and the mess it has made should not even exist
Tell that to the auto wipers in my model 3 that use the cameras to detect rain instead of an integral rain sensor

I'm almost sure Microsoft could buy Ubi and still not be in danger of a monopoly. In fact, they'd probably still be number #3 behind Sony. The only IP I care for when it comes to Ubisoft is Splinter Cell. Damn the rest

SQUARE ENIX WOULD BE OPEN TO JOINT VENTURES OR EVEN MINORITY STAKE IN ITS OWN STUDIO BECAUSE OF RISING DEVELOPMENT COSTS​

Yeah, SE mentioned this a couple months or so ago. It's still interesting though. Like, are they only open to joint ventures and minority stakes? Full acquisition off the table? Wonder if Sony or Tencent invest something similar to what they did with Fromsoft
